    A parallel plate capacitor is made of two plates of length $l$, width $w$ and separated by distance $d$. A dielectric slab ( dielectric constant $K$) that fits exactly between the plates is held near the edge of the plates. It is pulled into the capacitor by a force $F = -\frac{{\partial U}}{{\partial x}}$ where $U$ is the energy of the capacitor when dielectric is inside the capacitor up to distance $x$ (See figure). If the charge on the capacitor is $Q$ then the force on the dielectric when it is near the edge is

    A cathode ray tube contains a pair of parallel metal plates $1.0\, cm$ apart and $3.0\, cm$ long. A narrow horizontal beam of electron with a velocity $3 \times 10^7\, m/s$ passed down the tube midway between the plates. When a potential difference of $550\, V$ is maintained across the plates, it is found that the electron beam is so deflected that it just strikes the end of one of the plates. Then the specific charge of the electron in $C/kg$ is
